hi all.....this will tell you how to change a shape through action scriptong.....
Create two layers:-
"Object"
"Script"
in the main movie at "Object" layer.....
draw a shape and convert it to movie clip....name it "object1"
and then on the "script" layer.....go to frame 1 and add this action:-

CODE

xy = "20";
right = "20";
left = "-30";

the next step:-
Go inside the Movie Clip Symbol and convert the shape into another Movie clip and name it "object2"...
Inside the "object1" movie clip......create another layer called "script"...then go to frame 1 of "script" and add the following code:-

CODE

s = s - Math.random(500);
if (s > _root.left) {
gotoAndPlay(5);
} else {
gotoAndPlay(1);
}

the next step:-
Now go inside the "object2" movie clip symbol......
create a layer called "script"....
on frame 1 add this action:-

CODE

setProperty(this, _xscale, Random(50)+50);
setProperty(this, _yscale, Random(50)+50);
ny = Random(50)+50;
nx = Random(50)+50;

create a blank key frame next to it and add this action:-

CODE

setProperty(this, _xscale, this._xscale +( (nx - this._xscale) /8));
setProperty(this, _yscale, this._yscale +( (ny - this._yscale) /8));

and create another frame(frame 3 that is) and add this action:-

CODE

if ((this._xscale >= (nx-1) and this._xscale <= (nx+1)) and (this._yscale >= (ny-1) and this._yscale <= (ny+1))) {
ny = Random(90)+10;
nx = Random(90)+10;
}
gotoAndPlay(2);

remember...on the "object2" symbol.......the object layer must hav 3 frames too(if u dont know how to do that then create two frames(NOT KEYFRAMES)beside it...i tell u again....NOT KEYFRAMES

And then exit the symbol and go to the main scene and TEST ur movie....

Hope this tutorial was useful.....
